Welcome to CCPH

The Center for Counseling and Psychological Health (CCPH) offers a community of care to UMass Amherst students to help them cope with stress or anxiety, find strategies to overcome challenges, promote mental wellbeing, and succeed in college life and beyond. CCPH services include: workshops and consultations; crisis intervention; brief (generally 3-5 sessions) individual, couples, and group therapy; behavioral medicine; medication management; psychological assessment; suicide prevention training; campus consultation and education; and community referrals. We are open 8:30am to 5:00pm Monday through Friday and are also available 24 hours/day for mental health emergencies.

If you received treatment for a mental health condition while in high school or before, there are several things you can do to continue to stay healthy while transitioning to and attending college. These considerations can also be applied to other chronic or ongoing medical conditions.

The Center for Counseling and Psychological Health is committed to the welfare and success of all members of our community. Many on our vibrant and diverse campus have been impacted by executive orders on immigration.
